This was our 10th cruise, having cruised on Royal, Carnival and Princess before. This was our first cruise to Hawaii. We are in our early 50's and cruised with our son & DILl as well as SIL & HIL for a total of 6 people. We found the Star Princess to be perfect in size and was very well kept. Service was wonderful. The Hawaiin themed activities were superb. You could choose between lei making classes, hula classes, eukelalie lessons, language lessons, lectures and food demos all for free.
I was worried about two things: being bored with so many sea days & being seasick on the way to and from Hawaii. Neither ever happened. It seemed they had more than the normal activities during sea days and even though I could feel the ship moving, not once did I feel seasick. My daughter-in-law was suffering from some morning sickness (yea, our first grandbaby) and even she said the movement of the ship didn't bother her.
They had a good selection of latest movies playing on the "MUTS" every evening. They would show a hawaii based movie during the day to play into the Hawaiin Theme. I would have liked a bigger selection of comedians, but we did have several.
Room was convenient to elevators and a quick ride up to the buffet or down to the dining room. The laundry room was only a couple of doors down too. Plenty of closet space. Wish they had a medicine cabinet in the bathroom. Room stewart was wonderful. Bed was firm, which we like. Our request for more hangers and removal of the little table that gets in our way, was quickly fullfilled. We sleep with a white noise maker, so noises didn't bother us.
